This Week in CHI: April 17-23

Earth Day is this Saturday, which is one of the many reasons to appreciate how glorious the weather was in the city this past weekend. The Chicago Bitches will also be spending their Sunday soaking in the sun, kicking balls then brunching for the kick off game of the Brunch n’ Kickball league season! However, before Sunday rolls around there is plenty to do this week in Chicago.

Monday
